ABLE Accounts and Entrepreneurship

If you’re exploring ABLE accounts as a way to take control of your financial future, the 2025 Disability Owned Small Business Convening is the event for you.

This free, virtual conference, hosted by the National Disability Institute’s Small Business Hub in collaboration with the ABLE National Resource Center (ABLE NRC), takes place November 5–6, 2025, from 12:30–5:00 p.m. ET each day.

The convening is designed to help entrepreneurs with disabilities build, grow, and sustain thriving businesses while learning how ABLE savings can support their goals for independence, financial stability, and long-term success.

What to Expect

Participants will:

Discover how ABLE accounts can strengthen a business plan and expand access to capital.
Learn how to align purpose and prosperity with Ruby “SunShine” Taylor of Financial Joy School.
Get practical marketing strategies from Melinda “SmallBizLady” Emerson, a leading small-business expert.

Attendees will also connect with peers, partners, and leaders driving progress in disability-owned businesses nationwide.

Why Attend

For the ABLE community, this event is more than just information — it’s about empowerment. ABLE accounts are powerful tools that help entrepreneurs save, invest, and fund their dreams without jeopardizing benefits eligibility.
